The Florida House gave final passage to a bill that would end the Reedy Creek Improvement District, aka Disney's government, on Thursday
The House passed the measure with a 68-38 vote after the Senate backed the bill by 23-16 the day before
The legislation will now go to DeSantis' desk for signing and could come into effect on June 1, 2023
DeSantis previously said he wanted to remove Disney's protections because he doesn't 'support special privileges in law just because a company is powerful'
